00:00 Skills are one of the best ways to make your AI more powerful, and there are already some amazing ones you can install for free. I’m going to show you my favorites, how to install them, and what I actually use them for. Everything from researching what people are saying, and cleaning up AI writing to analyzing videos and creating animations. After that, I’ll get into the skills I use to build better websites, tools, and apps. First, really quick, for anyone who

00:31 doesn’t know, skills are a way to teach your AI how to execute a specific task or set of steps in a repeatable way. I think of them as recipe cards for workflows. Some skills are just a set of instructions. Others include scripts, reference material, or tools the AI needs to do the job. All the skills I’m covering are compatible across most agentic tools like chat GPT work or codeex cla co-work or code and things like grockbot Hermes openclaw and others.

01:04 I’ll start with one I’ve talked about on the channel before because it’s awesome. It’s called last 30 days. This skill goes out and finds what people are actually saying about a topic right now. Instead of relying mostly on normal web search, it searches across YouTube transcripts, Reddit, Poly Market, and other places. Then it scores and filters everything and synthesizes it all into a short report. And I’ll install this one in chat GPT work, the next one in cloud code, then cloud co-work, then codeex just so you can see it all, but it’s

01:35 basically the same process in each and it’s really easy. This is the GitHub repo. GitHub is just a platform people use to store code in the cloud. That’s where all of these will be. You can read all about the skill and exactly what it does here. I’m going to copy the link which will be down in the description with all the others. Then I’ll come into chat GPT and make sure I switch it over to the work tab. Then I’ll say install this skill from GitHub using its setup instructions. Then I’ll paste in the link and send it off. That’s it. It

02:06 works for a minute, then comes back and says the skill is installed. Easy as that. Now I will start a new chat to test it. To call a skill in work, you can hit at then find it. This one’s right here. And how about I try Jev from type safe. That’s a new AI tool that’s been all over the place for a few days. That’s all I need to type in. The skill will do the rest. Researched for 5 minutes and came back with this report, which is a nice digestible size. That’s something I like about it. It’s not some

02:36 gigantic report. It extracts all the most useful findings into something I’ll actually read. Then at the bottom, you can see it used 14 Reddit threads, 13 stories on Hacker News, and GitHub. I can open that to see all the posts with links. And you can enable additional sources during setup, like X and YouTube, too. Now, this summary is useful, but sometimes I use this for video ideas, and often the best ones are in the posts that don’t make it into that summary. So, I actually built a site around it where I can browse through some of that additional

03:06 information that the skill burries. When I run this skill, you can see it says last 30 days upstream. I’ll run it on the same topic. Then, at the end of its run, it will automatically fill out everything on the site. So, now it still has a nice summary. Then, it lists out the use cases to give me ideas or just to cover in addition to the ones I already use. Then, there’s unconventional takes. Sometimes these are really helpful. In this case, right up top, it points out how Jev talks about having zero hallucinations, but that doesn’t mean it has no errors. It can still get things wrong. A lot of the

03:37 posts around Jeb I saw weren’t very clear about that. Then it has all the original posts embedded when possible. So, it’s a lot easier to see them without having to click through to a bunch of different posts. So, to summarize how I got here, once I had built the site, I asked Codeex to run the skill. Then, I asked it to take all that extra information and input it into the format I wanted on that site. made sure the connection worked and that it was formatting things how I wanted. At the end of that iteration, I asked it to package everything up as a new expanded skill. I did walk through this entire process in my video about chatdy sites

04:08 if you want to see every little detail of this specific skill and site. But the core idea I wanted to get across is you don’t have to just download a skill and use it as is. That skill can be your starting point. You can build on it. Skills work even better when you customize them to your specific setup and preferences. I’m covering mostly agent skills in this video, but there’s also skills that can make your regular chats in Claude and Chatbt more powerful. I have a free resource that includes 12 of those down in the description. And it says Claude, but they work in chatbt, too. There’s a

04:39 brand voice skill, a personalized content engine, a YouTube launch kit, an interactive dashboard builder, and more. Each one includes a prompt you can paste in to create it, plus step-by-step instructions. Those are all really easy to install and use. Get them for free at the link in the description. Next, I have two awesome skills that I’m going to group together because they’re for a similar goal. They’re remotion and hyperframes. Both are tools for creating videos with code. And then they have

05:10 skills that teach your agent how to use them for creating motion graphics, data visualizations, map animations, captions, and a lot more. So, I’m going to install this one in Cloud Code. This is the same way as before. Type out the prompt, just the short prompt and paste in the link. That’s all it needed. Now it’s installed. I’m going to open up a new chat and create a motion graphic I could use in this video. Use Remotion to make me a motion graphic that talks about agent skills. Use a chat GBT icon in the center. Then have a bunch of things or icons expand from it that make it look like it has skills that are

05:42 expanding its capabilities. I’ll send that. Just a simple prompt. And you’ll notice I didn’t use a forward slash or at sign to call reotion. You don’t have to. it will still use it if you just mention it. Or some tools it will just use based on the context of your prompt without mentioning them by name at all. That’s all done. And Remotion opens up into basically a whole editing studio. There’s a ton of stuff you can do in here. Now, actually, since it didn’t have the Chad BT logo, I’m going to just upload that really quick and have it fix that. So, now it’s done. Let’s check it

06:12 out. That is a super smooth animation. It looks awesome. I would use that exactly as is. Now I’ll run that same prompt through Hyperframe so you can see the difference. Just install that really quick. I sent the same prompt. This was the result. And that also looks awesome. Both Remotion and Hyperframes let your AI create videos by writing code.

06:44 Remotion builds them with React. Hyperframes uses HTML and web animations. It’s a different approach, so they have different strengths. I recommend uploading the skills and then experimenting with both for whatever you need them for. Now, you may have seen that type with like animated icons before from these. So, I’m going to show another quick example of a map animation that’s a lot different. And Remotion actually has a built-in skill called Remotion maps. So, I’m going to call that and I’ll send a prompt that’s a little longer, but basically it’s to make a 15-second animation of a Utah

07:15 National Parks road trip with some detail about the type of map and how the camera should move and things like that. And then I will send the same prompt with hyperframes. Now, here’s how that came back from reotion. That’s looking really good. It’s following the prompt. Looks like it’s following all the highways and is pretty smooth camera movement. Although I don’t like the spin it did at the beginning and at the end here. That’s a little disorienting. I think that was just so it could be following it from behind. I’m sure I could ask it not to do that. Let’s look at the hyperframes version. And it

07:47 already looks like the aesthetics is way better. That was a super smooth zoom in. Looks like it’s following the same route along the correct highways. And I like the angle of this camera a lot more. And the zoom out to the whole thing. I like that way better than the Remotion version. even though Remotion has that specific map skill. So that’s what I mean when I say they’re good at different things. And the Remotion one wasn’t bad, but I’d like hyperframes a lot more for this use case then I preferred Remotion for that previous type of motion graphics.

08:19 I showed the core process of downloading a skill, but there’s one more step I also run a lot of the time for inspecting the skill. Nvidia has a security scanner called Skill Inspector. It scans skills for potential security risks. Like skills can include instructions, scripts, and other tools your agent runs. So, a malicious or poorly built skill could expose API keys or sensitive data or get your agent to take actions you didn’t intend. So, I asked it to install this as a skill I

08:49 can run. And I’m in cloud co-work this time. So, I will go ahead and call it. And then drop in the link to the next skill I’m going to show. And this one is going to be a more basic skill. And it does say it’s safe to install. And this is what the report looks like. It goes really deep. I will say sometimes it flags things that I think are fairly minor and felt comfortable still installing the skill after. But yeah, it’s a great report. Use your own judgment based on whatever risks it finds. On the other end, just because this says it’s clean isn’t an absolute

09:20 guarantee everything safe, but it’s definitely a useful extra step when you’re downloading skills from other people. That skill I just had it inspect is called humanizer. So I will say it can install it. This skill helps to solve the problem of AI slop in writing. Slop is everywhere now. And the more you use AI, the more you see the signs of its writing all over the place. This helps to humanize that writing. Now that that’s installed, I will send a prompt without using the skill. just to get

09:51 Claude’s default output. I’ll say, “Write me three engaging tweets about Jev from Typesafe.” Here’s what came back. Most AI calls in your code don’t need an essay. They need a decision and a confident score. Like, that sounds super AI right off the bat. The it’s not this, it’s that pattern. And the ending, welcome to system one models. Definitely a slot post. Same with the first line of the next post. The ending of this third one. Really almost every part of these feels like it was written with AI. So I

10:21 will say fix those up using humanizer. It reworked those. At the bottom you can see what it changed in each like the don’t need X need Y setup. There’s a closing line and all of this. These definitely sound less like AI now. And I used tweets because they’re short and easy to show, but this is especially useful for longer writing than this. And again, you can use this as a starting point to then tailor to your own writing style or examples you have and keep optimizing it.

10:54 Next is a skill that helps chatbt and claude to watch videos. And despite being named Claude video, it works in codecs as well. That’s why I’m showing it here. And it works from a link or a local file. And then while installing it, it will ask if you want to add an API to be able to generate a transcript from the audio when the video doesn’t already have one or captions. If you need that, you can drop in an API key. I’ll use my open AI API key for it. It’s completely free if you don’t use that, but if you want the fallback when there’s no captions, you can add that.

11:26 And then I am going to call the skill. I’ll drop in an Instagram link. And this is to a video of a camping meal where they have the ingredients in the description, but not the instructions. I will ask for a recipe and it will have to actually see what’s on screen in the video to be able to have the full instructions. That looks like it got it perfect. It has the full recipe with all the specific timing instructions that were only listed on screen, like 5 minutes on both sides. Now I’ll show what happens if I just drop it into chatt without the skill. It says it

11:57 can’t view the video on Instagram, so it’s already stuck. If I drop the full video file in, though, it will be able to do this. So, it extracts the frames and figures out the full recipe, but it doesn’t generate a transcript. And with some prompting, you can get it to do that, but it takes back and forth. The skill has just all of this stuff built in already. So, it just works much more consistently and smooth. Like, sometimes if it can’t see the video on a site, it will download it and process it without you even needing to reprompt. It just knows what to do. If you build websites or apps with AI, these next ones will

12:27 help with the whole process. I’ll finish by showing one that can make really impactful changes to a website with simple design commands. Superpowers is a collection of skills that help enhance the whole development process. You can call specific aspects yourself or once it’s installed, they’ll often just get called automatically to enhance things. Just kind of guiding the agent as it works. for things like brainstorming, writing plans, implementing features, testing,

12:57 debugging. It’s a lot like installing a development playbook that the agent consults throughout a project. I’ll just be sending prompts like normal. Then sometimes I’ll notice it called in something from superpowers. All just as part of the process without me thinking about it. Gstack is another collection of skills and tools for different jobs involving building and shipping software. This one is built and maintained by Gary Tan, the CEO of Y Combinator. Again, this is a big list. Some help challenge a product

13:29 idea or review a technical plan. Others handle design, code review, browser testing, bug fixes, and releases. And some of the capabilities do overlap with superpowers, but there’s a lot that don’t. So, I use both of them. Next is Impeccable. This was created to help solve the problem of AI design slop. It’s amazing what designs AI can create now, but when you’ve used it a lot, you start to notice that AI tells across designs, similar to how everyone

14:01 can spot them in text. Now, this helps to solve that. There’s a list of currently 24 commands for things like critiquing a design, amplifying boring designs, adding purposeful motion, adjusting typography and layout, making an interface clearer or more distinctive, and a lot more. This one has a website as well that helps give clear instructions on how to use it. I usually look at it through GitHub, though. But I had Chacht spin up this site really quick that’s a Utah National Parks Passport site. Just a really simple site. Shows each of the parks.

14:32 You can click to say you’ve been to one. Then it adds it to your passport. That was from just one basic prompt and it’s clean but pretty restrained. So I will call impeccable and say boulder. That’s one of its commands that says it will amplify boring designs. I don’t have to add anything else. I took a few minutes and added stronger typography. Deep forest green sections and made the pictures larger and a few other things throughout. This is much better than before. And now I will call impeccable again and use the delight command. This

15:05 is where it will add moments of joy. It says it added an animation where it will press a stamp into your passport. So I’ll try that. Say I’ve been here. That’s a nice animation. Looks much better than before. Definitely makes it more satisfying to have a moment like that when you complete one. Then I’m going to use one more impeccable command. Critique. This is an extremely useful one. It will do a big review of the site. You can see it has all of this feedback. It covers the design. Then a lot of this is around testing out the

15:35 different functionality and how a user would experience visiting the site. Then the responsiveness between desktop and mobile. And it has a lot of solid fixes I could implement. If this was a site I was actually working on. If you’re building any sort of websites or apps or landing pages with AI, I highly recommend installing this one and familiarizing yourself with how it works. It’s the easiest way I’ve found to level up your designs. Those are some really helpful skills I’ve been using. Pick some that fit what you already do,

16:06 try them on real tasks, and then customize from there. All the links are below to each of these GitHub repos, plus the free resource with 12 skills you can use in your regular chats.
